"Peace I Need" lyrics

"Peace I Need"

I wanna testify
Right now here today
I had my eyes closed
But now I've got something to say
Listen to me
I won't steer you wrong
Heed my words
There's more here than a song

Lost in the pages
Written in ancient hand
The quest for peace
Has been abandoned in this land

In this land of illusion
She gives me the peace I need
I'm a man of constant confusion
You give me the peace I need

I need to testify
Don't walk away
You may not wanna hear it
But I've got more to say
Inside we're burning
To fly to the highest star
Can't let your journey
Take you away from who you are

Another crash landing
You need something warm when you hit the ground
Crawling from the wreckage
Another fool that's fallen down

In this land of illusion
She gives me the peace I need
I'm a man of constant confusion
You give me the peace I need

In this greedy world gone crazy
She gives me the peace I need
I don't need you to save me
Just give me the peace I need
